LISA Press Play EP BLACKPINK Star Drops Tarantino Video

LISA Press Play EP: BLACKPINK Star Drops ‘Tarantino’ Video

The LISA Press Play EP arrived October 23, 2026, with six tracks and an official music video for “Tarantino.” BLACKPINK member LISA links the release to her Thai roots and a film-inspired concept. The project follows her documentary’s October theatrical opening and precedes six scheduled Las Vegas performances in November. Key Takeaways Press Play arrived October 23 through LLOUD and RCA Records with six tracks. James Mackel directed the “Tarantino” video, which follows LISA through a hotel. Advance single “SaWaDiKa” debuted at No. 69 on the Billboard Hot 100. LISA has six Las Vegas shows scheduled for November 12, 13, 14, 27, 28 and 29. The release pairs five new songs with September single “SaWaDiKa.” In the “Tarantino” video, LISA fights her way through a hotel while attempting to deliver a letter to filmmaker Quentin Tarantino. The video gives a concrete example of the concept LISA described before release. During a September appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, she said the songs were connected to her personal journey and designed to have distinct identities within one project. ‘Tarantino’ Video Features an Action Sequence and Fictional Script Directed by James Mackel, the “Tarantino” video follows LISA as she enters a hotel with a letter intended for the filmmaker behind Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill. Choreographed confrontations interrupt the delivery, with the performer moving through the building as the action develops. Tarantino does not appear onscreen. At the end, the story suggests the letter has reached him and shows a screenplay titled Her that names LISA. The sequence is part of the music video’s storyline, not confirmation that the singer and director are developing a film together. The release places “Tarantino” as the EP’s fourth track. In September, LISA told Fallon that track four would be the next single and

Travis Barker Reflects on 2008 Plane Crash in New Hulu Documentary

Travis Barker Reflects on 2008 Plane Crash in New Hulu Documentary

Travis Barker’s new Hulu documentary, Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear, revisits the 2008 South Carolina plane crash that killed four people and left the Blink-182 drummer seriously injured. The film traces his recovery, fear of flying and eventual return to air travel while documenting his career and family life. Key Takeaways Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear debuted Aug. 13, 2026, on Hulu in the United States. The documentary follows Barker across footage filmed from 2017 to 2026 and places the 2008 plane crash at the center of the story. The NTSB found that inadequate tire maintenance and a rejected takeoff after V1 were the probable causes of the accident. Barker told The Associated Press that he spent six months in a burn center and underwent 30 surgeries following the crash. The documentary ultimately shows Barker flying again after years of avoiding air travel. Hulu released the film Aug. 13 after its world premiere at the 2026 Tribeca Festival, which listed the feature at 99 minutes. The crash occurred on Sept. 19, 2008, when a Bombardier Learjet 60 overran a runway during a rejected takeoff at Columbia Metropolitan Airport in South Carolina. The flight was bound for Van Nuys, California. The captain, first officer and two passengers were killed, while Barker and Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein survived with serious injuries. The National Transportation Safety Board later determined that inadequate tire maintenance resulted in multiple tire failures during the takeoff roll. Investigators also identified the captain’s decision to reject the takeoff after V1 as part of the probable cause. Additional aircraft-design, training and crew-management problems were listed as contributing factors. For Barker, the documentary moves quickly from the accident to its physical consequences. In an Associated Press interview connected to the film, he described spending six months in a burn center and
